We study the convergence behavior of the Active Mask (AM) framework, originally designed for segmenting punctate image patterns. AM combines the flexibility of traditional active...

We present an energy based automatic image segmentation algorithm that uses a novel active contour scheme, called the stochastic active contour scheme (STACS). The algorithm overc...
Abstract. In this study, we present a new multi-band image representation for improving AAM segmentation accuracy for illumination invariant face alignment. AAM is known to be very...
In this paper, we describe a new region-based approach to active contours for segmenting images composed of two or three types of regions characterizable by a given statistic. The...
Fitting of the chin is an essential part of facial model fitting systems. Many previous approaches to chin fitting have used active contour models or snakes. However, achieving su...
